CHICAGO, Oct. 24-Secret negotiations
have been going on for the past ten days
between the trans continental roads and the
Canadian Pacific to bring about cessation
of the rivalry for Pacific coast business
which has forced rates down to so low a
point. These have progressed far enough
TO demonstrate that the foreign road is
willing, provided it Is allowed on account
of It's ciIcuitous route to charge ten per
cent less on through freight than the
American roads. Teere Is strong probable
fly that If better terms cannot be made that

Delphi. Ind, correspondent reports thai
that town Is intensely excited over the re
port that Lueils Mabbitt, for whose sup
posed murder Amer Green was lynched
Saturday morning, had arrived there.
Careful inquiry revesied the following; On
Saturday night young woman heavily
yelled alighted from an east bound Wa
bash train, and going TO the baggage room,
asked II her trunk had arrived, stating that
she had checked it when she took the train
at Fl. Worth, Texas. The trunk had not
arrived and she left the station and has not
since been seen. The Msbbitts aud their
neichbors deny that any woman answering
her description had been seen by anyone In
their vicinity within the last three days,
and a sesrch Of the town fsiled TO reveal
any clue. The trunk arrived a few hours
after her disappearance. 1t IS heavily
roped and securely locked, and there are
scores of people who would pay slmost any
sum If they could lift the lid and ascertain
the contents. The arrival OF this woman
and her trunk have set rumors OF all kinds

WHY Horses Shy.

have never met a veterinary sur
geon who knew anything about eat
gract of the eye" in horses. | call II
that because ii is an expressive term.
The trouble is the most general OF any
now affecting the horses of this coun-
try. 1t is the cause II nearly all, If
not all, Of the shying which surgeons
fail to find a reason for except gene
raj cusscdness." This cataract is OF
a brown growth, of a fungus nature,
that spreads over the pupil of the eye,
from the top downward. 1t has the
appearance Of 4 sponge growing away
from its hold. 1t is difficult to see I'M
less strong daylight falls upon the
horses eye exactly right, Then it can
be seen plainly, a silent evidence of
the animals defective eyesight. !
have examined horse after horse and
with but two or three exceptions out Of
about fifty | have found their eyesight
thus affected. OF course it is worse in
some than in others. 1t grows just
like cataract or cancer; at first just
dawning ominously on the upper edge
of the pupil, then gradually extending
itself, | have watched !. expand on
my own horse and its growth has been
very marked m even the short time OF
two wears. | have observed one thing
about it that makes me certain that
my conclusions are correct Every
shying horse that l have examined,
has, without exception, been so atfiict-
cd Never have | seen a horse shy
whose eve was not clouded by this
inexplcablc growth. | began to study
this curious defect after a long eXpe-
ricnce in trying to break my spirited
horse OF shying. | took him to doz-
ems of veterinary surgeons, but they
all said it was his cussedness. | used
to whip and punish him in every way
to break him of it, but | could not.
Now ! remember how curiously he
cooked his head at suspicious object
just as a person with poor sight will
try to get a better focus, Finally one
day the light happened to strike his
eve right and | saw the cataract. The
whole thing was plain to me then.
have studied the matter carefully
since, and the Globe Democrat will be
the first to say anything about this
prevailing effect. II anything has
ever been published about it, and il
any reason can be advanced, should
like to hear of it. Whether it is be-
cause of the barbarous and cruel
blinds which, by shutting out the light
and causing the animal TO look for
ward instead of sideways, affect his
eyes, or whether it is because of dark
stalls, cannot tell. But | am sure it
is the cause Of all the shying and
much of the stumbling that now makes
driving and riding 50 unpleasant and
dangerous. "A HorSeiaaR in The ST.

Fashions in Cats.

The Persian cat is of an exquisite
Maltese color, with long silky hair ana
topaz eyes. A full ruff around her
neck and feathered ears and toes tes-

whiskers' and a tail like a banner
complete her charms. and in this de-
scription are noted the distinctions of
her breed Not all Persians are of her
color; there are several varieties. the
preferable being a pure white with
yellow eyes. Persians possess all the
eat virtues, including a gentle DISPOSE
ton, in which latter quality they excel

is supposed to be descended from the
Siberian wildcat, and its cries are said
to be even more unciyilizcd and weird
than the unknown tongue in which
ordinary pussies exchange opinions on

is beautiful creature though not so
Intelligent as the sh0rt-haircd kinds.
Persiaus are often imported. but there
are places in New York where the
kittens may be sometimes procured at
a moderate price.
OF the >hort-haired eats perhaps the
greatest fayorite is white with blue
